Development empathy questionnaire
19 Feb 2008
Volunteers required to complete two online questionnaires.
Are you easily affected by the strong emotions of people around you? Do you find it hard to see things from other people's point of view?
I am a PhD student working under supervision of Dr Birgit Völlm and Dr Rhiannon Corcoran at the Neuroscience and Psychiatry Unit of The University of Manchester. Currently, I am conducting a study investigating the structure and validity of an empathy questionnaire that we have developed.
I am looking for male and female participants whose English is fluent and have not been treated for any psychiatric illness such as depression, anxiety or others within the last year. The study involves two online questionnaires that will take five to ten minutes to complete. Upon completing the questionnaires, you may - if you wish - enter a prize draw in which there will be one prize of £50 and one prize of £20. Prizes will be drawn in May and the winners will be notified as soon as possible thereafter.
